"And how do you spell your name, sir?"

"It's lowercase-italics 'r', lowercase-italics 'e', lowercase-italics 'd', lowercase-italics 'a', lowercase-italics 'c', lowercase-italics 't', lowercase-italics 'e', lowercase-italics 'd'"

"Ha, ha, your name is 'redacted'?"

"No"

You can quibble whether or not Tesla will continue to win at the scale it has, but it definitely doesn't seem likely to go bankrupt at the speed of a $6/share SPAC-boosted EV startup. It just doesn't really bear comparison to the other EV companies out there. It is not a startup, and has been publicly traded plenty long enough. Neither does it make sense to compare it to the old-guard ICE companies, which don't yet have their sea legs.

Any company can fail (for a fairly broad definition of "fail"), given time, but there's no practical likelihood of Tesla suddenly going bankrupt in the near future.

While I empathize that companies have to choose a release pathway that limits cost, I will not be a customer of a product whose release pathway is just a Chrome plugin. From where I'm sitting, that's less cost limiting and more customer limiting.

I'm in the middle of some AI startup telling me my clinicians don't need to do their own notes anymore if I pay $1000 a month for a Chrome plugin that records the session and runs it through some unnamed, unknown, undetailed LLM they run in Google Cloud, and they're acting like I'm stupid for having issues with it.

A project of mine is evaluating Rev AI for HIPAA-compliant transcription for case notes.

This isn't just transcription, it's also summarizing the entire 30/60 minute visit. Well, supposedly. I just have a hard time seeing how this small company is so far ahead of everyone else, while being able to run on Google Cloud and AWS.

I tried that idea back in 2015/2016 and physicians were just as skeptical then, with good reason mind you.

I WISH my clinicians were skeptical. One thinks it's perfect and is trying to overrule IT's reservations about the system.

It's totally unacceptable. These people are clearly only interested in making profits, and I would like to believe that they will hardly make any. I want to take them down!

Seriously. Anyone who is hostile to ad blockers is hostile to ADHD sufferers.

I have a Dasung e-ink monitor (by the power of grayscale). I find a lot of interesting reading on my work computer, but getting those links onto e-ink devices like my Boox has been irksome. Reading on the e-ink monitor was _almost_ worth the price. Ultimately, however, I retired it because the desktop real-estate, macOS's limited multi-monitor capabilities, and if I'm going to buckle down and read something long form I need to get away from my desk anyway.

This is the most expensive way to say, "Familiarity breeds contempt," that I've ever heard.

Many of the comments I've seen here so far seem to focus on whether or not there's a warning, and making folks type exactly the name of what they intend to delete.

"THIS IS IRREVERSIBLE! Please type 'owner/account' to proceed."

But https://httpie.io/blog/stardust seems to suggest that it would be an improvement to let people know just what they're going to lose. That might be a challenge, but it does sound like good UX to me. If a company knows what its users actually (might) value about a system, they could present it that way.

"Understand that deleting your account is irreversible. If you are sure, type 'Lose 10000 followers' to proceed."

There are quite a lot of patient skeletons out there. What does it even take to get AWS to review a botocore PR?

The steam deck is great, but I still think it's lacking in support for peripherals. For example, racing wheels, yokes and rudder pedals are inconsistent. My Saitek yoke works, but the rudder pedals cannot be detected. I wouldn't be that bothered if neither one worked, but the inconsistency makes it a lot worse. A "no maintenance" sign on a dirt road is far superior to a well-paved road leading to a sheer cliff.

It's pretty common in healthcare data, or at least the kind that deals with breadth of patient data. When trying to build knowledge about a disease by looking at a lot of patients, it's rare to get much useful info from a single source. Re-associating that multi-source data lends itself to a graph. If the company has been around for a little while, even if the customer-facing products don't use a graph database, at some point somebody has certainly tried it. (And once somebody has tried it, it lives forever in some part of the organization.)

It makes sense, kinda. Basically Nreal-style glasses with a headless computer.

But why stop there? If you further separate the keyboard/mouse from the computer, then you not only allow people to choose their own HCI (trackball? tapwithus keyboard?) but they can bring their own input, too.

Imagine all the benefits of the modularity of a desktop, with equal (if not better) portability of a laptop.

The problem with going wearable is the input. Nothing is as good as a full keyboard. The smallest reasonable solution I have found is a bluetooth keyboard for nontrivial use. Chorded keyboards and whatnot just aren't as good and believe me I've tried.

> Nothing is as good as a full keyboard.

I don't know what the solution is, but I remember most decrying that a keyboard on a mobile device would not work and that they wanted their Blackberry keyboards, but Apple nailed it. Here's to seeing that the next input/interface will be.

Actually I wouldn't mind having a physical keyboard on a phone again.

On-screen keyboards are only a slight improvement. What they solved is everything else except typing speed and accuracy.

I never got used to glass keyboards, and gladly bought both the BlackBerry KeyOne and KeyTwo. They were so nice!

I split keyboard is better than a full keyboard. Easier and faster to type, less strain. Can't work easily as a single piece though, and this severely limits its usability in travel / transport settings.
